I made popcorn, on the stove, I was that desperate
But abs.
Should have bought some sweet carrots as evening snack.
We are the architects of our own destruction…
I’m gonna lose so much weight once I don’t have a teen in the house. The snacks. It’s like the ring. Every moment is a moment of avoiding being cheeky with a little snack
Couldn’t be me. I have an entire apartment to store snacks in
This sums up every weekend for me. Usually I end up snacking on an old package of cheese.
My air popper burnt out on Sunday. I only had three other ways to make popcorn it was scary for a minute
thanks obama
Snackers lament
I’ve stocked up for Halloween three times already.
Is that restocks, impulse shopping, or the annual plan (like mine)
Yes
Yes
:3
I can feel this meme through the screen.
Pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, various nuts and other baked legumes are decent alternatives for chips.
There are all rice chips, root chips, pea chips, and so forth.
Nothing, however, can replace real chips…
Just be careful, because nuts are pretty calorie dense.
Popcorn is a good option for when your brain just wants to shovel food in your mouth.
Yeah, I used to get nuts, but I go through them quickly, easily eating more calories at a faster rate than if I get grabbed some Cheetos^™.
Now, I air-pop my own popcorn. The additional effort is a helpful chance to ask myself if I really want to snack, and a full half cap of kernels (which is a lot of popped corn) and as much EVOO as I care to dose it with is still a lot fewer calories than I would get from nuts, and it takes longer to eat.
You wanna get nuts?!
pickles, cucumbers, carrots, peppers. nice and crunchy, basically zero cal, they take some time to eat (unlike nuts that you can pop by the handful).
but yeah for shovelling, dry popcorn is a good option
Very true. I was speaking for myself a bit. I can’t eat too many nuts, they hurt my stomach so u just use them to satiate the crunch craving on the go, during the week.
On a Friday night when ive got the munchies all bets are off. And popcorn is absolutely on my rotation of brain off snacking.
The last sentence is all you needed.
I hate this. I need to stop eating chips whenever I get home from work, so I didn’t buy any. Then I get home from work and I don’t have any chips to eat and dinner isn’t soon enough😩
Drink some water
Try eating an apple.
And popcorn. Good source of fiber. And crunch.
Look at Mr. Reasonable over here.
I think you’re mistaken, this is a certified Diplom Dr Reasonable
Maybe when they have nacho cheese flavored apples 😉😂
I curve my craving for chips by eating a raw potato.
*curb my cravings
Son-a-birch you got me
*carb my cravings
Now I want stake.
I’ve got a cracked screen so it looked like you said “try renting an apple”, I almost cackled
Apple phone leasing product placement is getting weird
In this economy?
I do actually eat one on the way home. Very delicious crunchy juicy apples they are!
Get White cheddar rice cakes. Are they chips? No. Do they satisfy the craving? No. But are they with eating anyway? Also no.
Eating rice cakes is like getting a handjob from the wind.
I like em with a little peanut butter or cheese on them
I won’t have you tarnish the name of wind. Yes, her handjobs are nothing to write home but nobody blows like the wind.
They are delicious, too bad the ones with toppings have very unhealthy ingredients. (Chips aren’t much healthier lol) I usually get the cakes made from corn, with a very slight pinch of salt. But these packs are gonna be consumed from top to bottom so yeah🫠
What would you consider an unhealthy ingredient?
If you say the word chemicals, I’m going to mail you my chemistry 101 book :-P
Sadly that’s when I make worse decisions. I end up finding out I have oats or cocoa powder and I’m making some excuse to make cookies or a cake lol
Or eating a bowl of dry oats with cocoa powder on top.
I ended up making chocolate brownies after that last comment, I didnt have cupcake liners, milk, eggs, or chocolate chips… But they’ll be fine haha
At least you are practicing a skill
I buy those round gluten free things. I start eating them and they taste so bland the need goes away
Don’t buy chips, buy good food to snack on.
Apples and cheese makes a great snack. Even quality peanut butter is better than ultra processed chips.
It sounds like the system is working as desired!
I understand that I’m not the target audience of this meme, but I’m confused. Isn’t it an option to simply eat dinner?
Alternatively… to simply be hungry for an hour or three?
The joke is that at the time of shopping we decide to be strong and be hungry, but when the time comes to test that determination, we don’t have the strength of our past well-wed self.
Also snacks imply something besides dinner.
I’m still confused. I thought the Snack situation was,
-
You’re hungry,
-
The chips are ready to eat,
-
You eat the chips.
So if there are no chips, you have to make something to eat instead, which becomes de facto Dinner. So the No Snack situation is
- You’re hungry,
2a. There is no food ready to eat,
2b. You make food to eat,
- You eat the food.
I might be off base here, but I don’t snack, and I actually don’t understand.
-
Dinner is not snacking.
Dinner is a commitment. You make dinner to eat dinner.
Evening snacking is optional and periodic. You can have few snacks. You can have many snacks. You can snack here or there. You can snack anywhere. You can snack reading a book. You can snack in a nook.
If I make dinner… I am eating dinner. If I grab snacks, I might have a few laying in bed after ripping a joint and I can stop at any time. Just a few more chips. I’m good.
I don’t snack at all. I only put food in my face two or three times a day, sometimes 4 if I’m working hard. Guess who isn’t fat.
